NAME

bmed - BSU program median mixes seismic data across the trace direction

SYNOPSIS

bmed [ -h | infile | mix ]

DESCRIPTION

Basic Seismic Utilities (BSU) mixes traces using a median mix. Current version is limited to a 21 trace median mix, but this can be increased by modifying the source code and recompiling. Designed for wavefield separation on time aligned data, the code does not taper in/out at the edges of the data set. Rather, it replicates mix/2 traces from the midpoint out to the end of the data. Note, this is a MEDIAN mix. If you want to use the MEAN mix, then you will want to run bmix instead.

Options

-h

Online help giving details on command line arguments

infile

mix

NOTE:
If invoked with no options, will prompt user for input parameters.

EXAMPLE:
bmed bshfwave.seg 11

File bshfwave.seg is mixed with an 11 trace spatial median mix operator.
